Bright red and bursting with sweetness, strawberries are one of America’s favorite fruits. While they aren’t quite as popular as bananas or apples, the average American ate about 8 pounds of strawberries in 2022, making them the 7th most-consumed fruit – and by far the most beloved berry – in the U.S. (via Statista). That may not come as a surprise since they’re delicious served all kinds of ways, whether sliced into an elevated Fourth of July fruit salad, baked into a berry-packed pie, or turned into a summertime Polish strawberry pasta. But when it comes to how widely enjoyed the fruit is, a question arises: Where are all our strawberries coming from?
